Beach Library Board endorsement

October 17, 2012

'Kudos' to Don Kyte! "Vote all the women and none of the men!" as he stated in a recent beach paper.

That is an excellent idea. This Board of Directors worked hard over several years to make this library dream come true. Many of these Directors are up for approval of another term. I strongly suggest that the residents vote to keep these fine Directors on the job!

The Beach Library is absolutely awesome! A visit to the Grand Opening last Saturday was a real pleasure. It is already in operation, fully paid for, and under budget for next year! Dr. Leroy Hommerding, The Library Director, should be recognized with the "Citizen of the Year Award" for successfully completing this rigorous task that will serve the citizens of Fort Myers Beach for many years. He worked tirelessly with the architect, Harvard Phil Tressa; the Construction Manager, Jim Grant; along with the Library Board of Directors and other residents while the library remained in operation serving the public, school children, visitors - one and all.

Throughout these multifaceted operation tasks, Dr. Hommerding kept good financial budget records that were transparent to all citizens of Fort Myers Beach, including Town Hall and the Lee County Commissioners.

So, let's show our support on Election Day! Vote for these women who have served you well. Give these amazing people four more years: Mary "miffie" Greer, Lorrie Wolf and Sallie Seaburry.
